Hands off in combination with portafilter
Unusable for portafilter, because for espresso must be ground so fine that the mill simply does not follow. Too little power, grind come out warm and the mill blocks regularly. May be a good mill for French press, filter and mocha pot, for espresso simply unusable.
Vulnerability
The grinder ground reliably for several years and I could grind all the coffee I wanted.
After almost 4 years and daily use, the grinder regularly clogged up. Reason: The ejection wheel is made of plastic and was wearing out. As a result, the grist was no longer transported "outside" and blocked the grinder. I have not been able to find a replacement part.Pro
- Price
- Setting option
Contra
- A lot of plastic
- Ejection wheel
Powder scattered, ugly, too little fine adjustment
Pro
- doesn't cost very much
Contra
- scatters the ground powder far and wide: not suitable for portafilter
- Visibility of portafilter is limited: you can't quite see how much powder is already in it.
- ugly
- Timer is of no use because powder flies around
Good setting, grinder good but otherwise plastic.
I should have bought them earlier!
Pro
- Grinds the coffee perfectly. A grinder, not a beater!
- The degree of fineness can be adjusted tip-top.
- Coffee holder holds quite a lot of coffee
Contra
- The only negative thing for me is that you can't grind larger quantities at once.

This review was created for a different variant: The Dose Control Pro (CH plug)
Unsatisfactory - disappointing.
Makes noise in stand-by.
Rarely (but often enough) has an inexplicable error that the grinding simply does not stop until you disconnect it from the power. I.e. you can not grind and in the meantime milk foaming or änliches but must supervise the device otherwise there is a big mess.
Grind quantity gradation too coarsePro
- Grinds coffee
- cheap
Contra
- Stand-by noise and must be manually removed from the power supply
- Grind quantity resolution graded too coarse
- Cannot grind unattended.
Just works.
There is an electrical noise/hum when the grinder is on standby so I need to unplug it after every use.
Pro
- Easy to set the dosing and grind level
Contra
- Electrical noise
Good result with flaws
The machine grinds very well. But it makes a constant buzzing sound unless you unplug it. It also misses a lot of coffee, which is a waste of good coffee.
Pro
- Good coffee
Contra
- Buzzing sound
- mess

I think its perfect !
Pro
- precise amount needed in cup.
- All grind sizes.

Beautiful coffee grinder with good price / performance ratio.
Very nice coffee grinder with very good grinding result. Comes with many adapters and accessories. Unfortunately, it does not dose very precisely, which is why usually some ground coffee ends up next to the portafilter. The volume is reasonable but certainly not quiet. The additional grinding levels are a big plus, with the finest settings (including the additional 5) you get ground coffee for Turkish coffee. Unfortunately, I can't share any experience on the coarse grind settings (filter, etc.), as I haven't made any such coffees.
Pro
- Good grinding result
- Nice design
- Good workmanship (e.g. really good lid, which ensures tightness)
- Lots of accessories
Contra
- Somewhat noisy
- Scatters coffee grounds (unclean dosage)
I use this coffee grinder together with a Jura fully automatic machine. So I have for the 'second variety' always very freshly ground coffee (decaffeinated).
excellent coffee grinder at a good price
Pro
- sturdy construction, uniform grinding, settings without restrictions.
Contra
- Online registration of the product at 'www.sageappliances.com' did not work.
- (announced confirmation from Saga never received).
